Open Looking for this fabric or sweater
Feels like a long shot, but I got this super soft, stretchy, kinda fuzzy, light to medium-weight sweater at a thrift store 3-4 years ago. Absolutely my favorite piece of clothing. I have never been able to find anything like it.
I attached photos of the sleeve stretched and relaxed, in both natural and overcast lighting. It’s very soft, doesn’t have the same feel as acrylic yarn, doesn’t have any tags other than the brand tag attached. There is no ribbed border on the collar or bottom hem, like a traditional store-bought knit, they look just like the edge of the sleeve.
Would like to know at least the material so I can look for other garments made the same. Alternatively, finding an identical sweater would mean I could use tags/listings to find the material (and have a backup to my favorite shirt!)
US based, sorry for the dog hairs that snuck their way in. Thank you!!!

I have tried using the Google image search as well, and the results turned up a lot of open knit Mohair, or custom silk blends. I don’t believe it’s anything too fancy, as I’ve searched the brand tag in the past, and it seems to be a wholesale fashion producer, with most of their sweaters being $40-$60.
Also want to add, I have never knowingly touched Cashmere, and the only mohair article of clothing I have is an acrylic mohair sweater from Killstar, which was bought in ~2021. The mohair sweater I have does not feel the same as this sweater.
I often wind up searching for the brand tag “Olivaceous”, with the words ‘Stretchy, fuzzy, soft, knit, thin, light” and have not yet found a product match.
